Since the announcements from AWS re:Invent in late November, we’ve updated our free Cloud Comparison tool to include a slew of new features announced by AWS as well as new features from the other top public cloud providers Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and IBM Cloud.

The Meltdown and Spectre CPU flaws revealed this week can expose modern systems to risk and affect users of cloud services from public cloud providers as well as those operating their own private clouds. Here’s what you need to know to protect yourself.

RightScale product updates for December include new features in RightScale Optima that deliver recommendations for cost savings, more details on your incurred costs, and actual costs vs. calculated costs. And we’ve added platform support for the newest AWS instance types: P3, C5, M5, and H1, along with new plugins for Google Container Engine and the Amazon MQ service.

RightScale product updates for November include support for image families on Google Cloud Platform and enhancements to Optima Billing Centers including more granular user permissions and the addition of AWS account names and IDs.
